1 Corinthians 1:27 (LSB) 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong,
Many of us make the mistake of thinking that we need to be Bible scholars to understand the deeper things of God.
And while a strong intellect can sometimes be a factor, that same strong intellect can sometimes also be a hindrance.
You see, there are some things that God does that even the wisest man can’t figure out or comprehend.
And that’s Okay!
God doesn’t ask us to understand everything. He asks us to have faith.
It is our faith that pleases God!
Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV) 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
And with our faith, we learn of God and His ways, asking Him for wisdom, which He gives liberally and without prejudice to those who ask.
James 1:5 (NKJV) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
So, never fear that you can’t know God because of a lack of understanding. It is He that gives us understanding.
We just need to ask!
